The Crucible

“The Devil’s loose in Salem . . . and we will burn together!”

Rumours of witchcraft descend into mass hysteria, threatening the authority of church, state and the law. Arguably the most important play of the 20th century, The Crucible is a timely
and moving exploration of faith, hope and the power of love in the face of terrible adversity.
